Roots & Rhythm: Shakuhachi & Ghatam in Dialogue at San Diego Peace Church

Roots & Rhythm: Shakuhachi & Ghatam in Dialogue
An Exploration of Japanese, Indian, Latin & Jazz Fusion

Experience the Roots & Rhythm quintet, led by shakuhachi master John Kaizan Neptune and Grammy-winning ghatam virtuoso Giridhar Udupa, as it brings together Japanese, Indian, Latin & Jazz Fusion in a contemporary musical dialogue.

Blending the expressive voices of the shakuhachi and ghatam with guitar, bass and percussion, the ensemble creates an original contemporary sound shaped by improvisation, rhythm and musical dialogue. Rather than presenting musical traditions, Roots & Rhythm brings together diverse influences to create something new—music that is deeply rooted, yet unmistakably contemporary.

Whether you're discovering these remarkable instruments for the first time or are a longtime world music enthusiast, this intimate performance invites you into an evening of connection, creativity and musical discovery.

Roots & Rhythm is independently produced by the Neptune family and Mudit Agency. Thank you for supporting independent artists and live music.
